Recommended Wiring for 2001 Volvo V70
Question:
On our other Volvo 08 v70 they mechanic had to step up the voltage for trailer wiring since the vehicle uses a lower voltage 5 V? for lights. Now installing myself on our older 2001 V70. The unit that Curt provided with my trailer hitch 4 way flat output does have a battery lead. Can I assume this unit 59146 will provide adequate voltage to my trailer lights? I did not want to install it before checking compatibility.

Expert Reply:
The 59146 is not a harness we carry. The harness should draw adequate power from the battery to power the converter and the trailer lights but we don't have the confirmed fit on your vehicle. Curt does not confirm fits for the converters, so I cannot confirm it on their end either. What I can confirm is the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C59236. This has been tested to work with your 2001 Volvo V70. This converter will allow more amperage for both the tail lights and the turn/stop functions than the 59146.
